If so, do you have access to the genealogical information assembled by Jorge Forjas and circulated presumably by Club Lusitano. My mother, Camilla Maria Danenberg was one of the sisters of Caesar Augusto Danenberg. Let me know where you are in your search and I can then provide the information I have developed that you might not have.

Posted on: General China Query Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/China/General/10347 Surname: Young ------------------------- My paternal gandfather was David Kam-Young. I don't know if he was first or second generation. But his wife's first name was May. I don't know if this was a relation but my family on both sides have lived in hawai'i between 3-6 generations. So this may be someone related to him. However from what I am old the Young was added on almost as a fluke. It should really just be Kam (meaning Gold in chinese). Hope this helps.

Posted on: General China Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/China/General/10343 Surname: Leong ------------------------- One of my ancestors left Toishan for the South Seas ( Nan Yang) in the last century for Borneo. His name was Leong Loi.It is interesting that the name Leong Loy in also in your family lineage.Names like Leong Shin Choy, Leong Shin Fook are in our family tree.From little that I know there were three brothers from Toi Shan. One left for the South Seas to Borneo, we believe the second brother went Eastward to America or Hawaii, the third brother went to Australasia.I wonder whether we are linked in some ways.
Posted on: General China Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/China/General/10342 Surname: WONG or, WONG YIN ------------------------- I am looking for information on my father. Hi name was WONG TOM YIN. He migrated to the caribbean island of Jamaica in the West Indies around 1921 from we think Canton. He married and had 4 sons and 1 daughter (Daniel, Dolly, Eunice, Egbert - who went back to China, one died). He met and married my mother after his first wife passed away. My parents were married in June, 1956 in the Maryland Dist, St Andrew, Jamaica. They had 8 children. He passed away on January 15th, 1965 a few days after my third birthday. Our belongings we destroyed in a storm and we have no picture. I have no memory of him at all and this is my last avenue. Hopefully someone out there knows sonmething.
Posted on: General China Query Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/China/General/10340 Surname: BOWEN ------------------------- I have been trying to trace relatives of my father Harold Bowen b 3 May 1892 at Chorlton upon Medlock, Lancashire, England. We know he had a younger brother named Sidney (?Sydney). Although unaware of any other siblings there is a possibility that there was an older brother who died before my father was born. My father's father's name was William Thomas Bowen and his mother's name was Sarah Elizabeth Bowen nee Sutton or Dutton. They travelled to China from Lancashire in late 1890's. Harold travelled to China (Shanghai) to join his parents at the age of 9 (about 1900) returning to England prior to WW1. He joined the army but finished the war in the Royal Flying Corps. His family had something to do with cotton manufacturing which is why they went to China. Sarah apparently died of a vitamin deficiency in China (Shanghai area) early 1900's. Any information on her death, cemetery or shipping lists gratefully received.

She was born in 1959, Possibly in September. We think that she was born in Kowloon in Hong kong. She was placed in St Stephens orphanage in Kowloon Tong in 1960or 1961, by her family.
